Don't be rediculous, those voltages are sub 1V and won't do anything.

Anyone?

hi all on my 9700k I get 1.3v vcore and 1.5V vid in hwinfo 64 with adaptive voltage, is this safe?

Can I use a USB cable to clear CMOS?

Max safe voltage for long term usage based on temperature of the CPU under cb20 load.

We are talking about skylake here.

1.5V IS NOT SAFE. It can be run for a very short amount of time.

Yes and It did, that CPU could run 5.0 at 1.33V and now it needs 1.37V for the same clock.

After being run at 1.535V for the hour the CPU was unable to run for 1 minute at an overclock that could run it for 6hours+ that is degradation.

1.13V <115C (RIP CPU) 1.22V <110C (really not recommended) 1.315V <100C (not recommended) 1.36V <90C (not recommended) 1.39V <80C 1.42V <70C 1.445V <60C 1.465V <50C 1.475V <40C 1.485V <30C 1.49V <20C* 1.495V <10C* 1.50V <0C* ^ Package temps in cb20. Take off 20mv if your motherboard is bad. * 20C and lower is very conservatively estimated and not compiled of actual real data. Use at your own risk. Random other things that are related. Highest I recommend for benchmarking is 1.5V. Do not blame me if your CPU dies though. My friend ran a 8350k at 1.52V for 2hours at 5.53ghz and it didn't degrade. My other friend ran a 7600k at 1.535V 5.36ghz for 1 hour until it crashed due to degradation. (Not software readings, actual hardware ones) (I'm saying 1.5 and not 1.52 because every CPU is different and I like to be safe.) Edit > Due to confusion on this point I must add that 1.5V isn't safe for much time at all. Only run this if you really want that amazing cinebench score or something. No longer then 6 hours. To all you people running 1.45V, this isn't Sandy bridge, you can't run 1.45V at 80C for 9+ years on skylake. Please acknowledge this. If anyone has had a skylake, kabylake or coffee lake CPU die at any listed settings, please inform me so I can update this list (does not include people running trash motherboards). If you want to tell me that these numbers are too conservative, I really couldn't care less because being safe is more important then being clocked 100mhz higher.
